The Sleeping Prince's Romance

"Do me a favor, White."

Cirou who walked up to White said bluntly.

"Why, are you hungry? I'll treat you to a big meal after I finish picking the wool (stones that are mined directly from the mine without any further processing are called wool), and I will treat you to a big meal after I make a lot of money. Now bear with me, Brat."

White didn't even look up.

"I'm not hungry, and if you do buy this piece, I'll have to treat you to dinner, not you to treat me to dinner."

When he walked over, Cilang had already used his clairvoyance ability to see the stone that White was looking at. It was white inside, and there was nothing else but the stone.

"Go, kid, don't talk nonsense if you don't know anything!"

White rolled his eyes at Jirou.

People who gamble are naturally a bit taboo, and now Cilang's words imply that he will lose the bet, so it's no wonder that White can feel happy in his heart!

Little did he know that Cirou reminded him just for his own good, and if White really didn't listen, Ciro would not say anything more.

Watched by Jiro's stubborn eyes, White's eyes turned between Jiro and the stone, and finally surrendered:

"Well, OK, how about helping you after I buy this piece of wool?"

Worried that if he left, this piece of wool with excellent performance would be picked up by other guests, so White completely ignored Cilang's very clear persuasion, and decided to act first.

Knowing that because of his age, he was too unconvincing, even if he continued to persuade him, it would not be effective, so after looking at White with complicated eyes, Jiro stopped saying anything.

All the wool is clearly priced, and the piece in White's hand is worth 2 US dollars, and there is no bargaining at all.

Seeing White swiping the card with a painful face, Cirou estimated that this should be almost all of White's property, and even part of it should be borrowed.

After all, the salaries of new policemen are definitely not much higher.

Moreover, from the expression on White's face when he entered the stone gambling shop, it can be seen that he should be ready to throw all his eggs in one bet and gamble with all his might.

The fact is just as Jiro guessed, the swipe just now did wipe out all of White's family property and the borrowed 1 US dollars.

In other words, if the wool bet loses, the total assets of White, who has just lost his job, will be negative $1.

"By the way, what do you want me to do, kid?"

Holding all his property in anticipation and anxiety, White has not forgotten his promise to Jiro.

"Ask for me, how much is that stone over there?"

In order not to let people see that he has an understanding of stone gambling, Cilang deliberately said "stone" instead of the more professional "wool".

If a five-year-old child wins the bet, he can still be said to be lucky, but if he knows something about betting on stones, it is a bit against the sky.

White went to ask the boss, and then came back and told Cilang that because the performance of the wool was too ordinary, it was considered a semi-waste, and it was disposed of for $100.

Obviously, the piece that Jiro is optimistic about is much bigger than the one that White is holding in his arms, but because of the poor performance, it is 250 times cheaper.

"Why do you ask about that scrap? Are you still planning to buy it?"

White looked at Jirou warily:

"This is something grown-ups play with, I'll take you home right now!"

It is impossible for White to watch Cilang buy a stone with 100 yuan, even though that piece of wool may be the cheapest piece of wool in the house, but the eye-catching wool over there is bought by the boss The asking price is $380 million.

But it would be an idiot to buy it knowing it was a piece of scrap.

"Save your pocket money for ice cream, kid!"

No matter how White tried to stop him, it was a pity that Cirou had already made up his mind and would not listen to any persuasion. He just looked at White directly. In the end, White lost first, and he reluctantly agreed to help Cilang buy the piece of scrap.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

"Do you have two dollars? Lend me to use it, I don't have enough money!"

When White reached out to ask Cilang for money, Cilang put all his pocket money - 98 US dollars into White's palm, and then said innocently.

——If you don’t have enough money, don’t buy it!

White really wanted to say this, but he already knew Cilang's stubborn side, even if he went to ask someone he didn't know to borrow money, this five-year-old child would not give up his decision.

Why is this kid so stubborn!

While White sighed helplessly in his heart, he took out two coins from his pocket and put them together with Cilang's 98 yuan.

"This is what my uncle gave you, so you don't have to pay it back."

A five-year-old child borrowed two yuan from himself and asked him to pay it back? White felt that no matter how short of money he was, he couldn't do such a shameful thing!

"It can't be."

Jiro shook his head seriously and refused, then stared at White for a while, after he almost thought there was something dirty on his face, he finally made a decision in his heart:

"Since you don't want me to pay it back, then the 2 dollars will be your investment. If jadeite is cut out of this piece of wool, 2% of the selling price will be yours."

Jiro was unrepentant, and helped White make the decision on his own.

White stared blankly at Jiro, who suddenly changed into a different person, and couldn't react for a while.

Just now he clearly said innocently that he wanted to buy a rock to play with, but why did this kid call it "wool" in such a way after a while, and knew that emeralds might be cut out of it?

What kind of evildoer did I encounter?

The longer he spends with Cilang, the more White feels that the first 25 years of his life have been wasted. Compared with other five-year-olds, he looks like that five-year-old.

Because of the decision in his heart, Cilang, who originally planned to pretend to be a fool, changed his plan almost immediately, letting White know that he is not a young child who doesn't know anything, but has a certain foundation.

This is all to pave the way for the following things. If that thing really happens, my harvest may be greater than getting that piece of wool.

"Cut out the emerald and sell it directly. 98% of the money will be sent to this account, and the rest is up to you."

Cilang handed White another note with a bank account number, which he had previously asked Xiaozhi to use his knowledge of hacking to secretly open it for him in a Swiss bank, otherwise there would be no bank in this world that would give it to him. A five-year-old child opened an account.

"Remember, don't mention the relationship between me and this piece of wool."

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

In the end, White has gradually become numb to Jirou's mature adult behavior.

In the past, I successfully bought that piece of wool, and according to Cilang's instructions, I didn't need to draw a line when dissecting the stone, but just cut it from the middle.

After the jade inside was cut out, it was exactly the same as what Cilang saw through perspective.

This jadeite cut in half belongs to the Laokeng glass species apple green, which is an extremely popular high-grade jadeite.

Because the sum of these two pieces of jadeite is really not small, after some jewelry shop owners who came to gamble on the stones bid, the transaction was finally sold for 1250 million US dollars.
